Australian-American Association Reception

In Darwin (Top End) we were invited out to dinner at a wonderful restaurant from the Australian-American Association. This organization provides a number of services foe American soldiers stationed in this area. The local airport is actually an army base. This area was affected during the Japanese invasion in WW11 and still maintains border controls in Northern Australia. We met some wonderful members who gave us a magical dinner, and great company. The Aussie humor here is great! Everyone in this country is so friendly. I can see why people want to stay when they visit here. On to Cairns tomorrow!
